10th Worst Polluters in America
Reader comment on: The New Yorker on David and Charles Koch
Submitted by P.J. Nuhn (United States), Aug 26, 2010 09:27
I enjoyed reading Koch Facts web page, as well as this article. Noticed that neither site mentioned the EPA report that shows Koch Industries is the 10th worst polluter in the America.
As for their involvement with George Mason Univeristy and the Mercatus Center where Charles Koch is a board member, public universities operating on state funding are supposed to be in operation for the benefit of the students and not the corporate donors. You can't square that with the Mercatus Center telling a court that the EPA didn't consider the impact of skin cancer if they regulate the elimination of smog. But then again, GMU is a junk college so it is probably only right that they take Koch's money and conduct junk science with it...
